In this podcast, we will be discussing the book Special Agent: My Life on the Front Lines as a Woman in the FBI, by Candice DeLong. When Candice DeLong joined the FBI, she was one of the few female agents. At that time, women represented less than 4% of a total agent force of 8,000. Today, women remain a minority—there are 1,700 women, representing only 15% of total agents. We wanted to share Candice’s story with you because she is an example of how to succeed as a leader in a male-dominated profession. Her persistence, work ethic, and teamwork were the pillars of her success. And, like many other women in male-dominated professions, she learned how to walk the line between being “one of the guys” and being an assertive, independent woman.
